TNE-0300 Traveller: The New Era

A Civilization Ready To Re-Awaken...

But it cannot do so by itself. three generations ago, a star-spanning society annihilated itself in a furious war. The final weapon in this war was a new form of life-a malevolent electronic race that hates life itself. But among the ruins, life is stirring-a civilization is waiting to be rebuilt.

Inside Traveller: The New Era you'll find everything you need to create an entire universe of limitless adventure:

A character generation system with over 40 careers and 100 skills, from wilderness survival to starship astrogation.

A fast, simple task and combat system compatible with GDW's Twilight: 2000 and Dark Conspiracy games.

A colorful and innovative vector-based starship combat system which provides rich tactical detail but which can be played without a map.

World generation which lets you design entire universes from stars to planets, and the creatures that live on them.

Ok, scan pretty crappy. Reading glasses helped. Ok, why bother with something that that is that difficult to read? Because this is like the ultimate GDW game. Not the rules. Not even exactly the setting. I still have my first Traveller books [...]

I remembered playing Traveller in the early 80's with great affection and was so excited to get this and the several other TNE PDFs I bought at the same time, but now I very much regret the purchase. This has to be one of the worst scans I have ever [...]

Asa a great fan of both Megatraveller and classic Traveller, I was happy to see that this product continued in the spirit of both. As a new, larger, gaming supplement (over 300 pages) it has the dificulty of balancing sheer longwindedness over actual [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
